Please post any suggestions on id. These ones are twisting me for a long time :cry: . Can anyone confirm whether these are mammillarias or not? 8-[ I am not expert to make a conclusive id.

Both are extremely etiolated - they need MUCH more light (but acclimate them first). No. 1 is definitely a Mammillaria, 2 doesn't look like it has typical Mammillaria tubercles.

#2 Looks more like a Parodia - and I agree, they need more light.
